Pros

Great company, great product, great leadership, but its pretty much great for stakeholders only. Sales teams rarely hit quota across the floor, and if they do it is at the expense of their customers who accidentally "use more than they wanted" in the platform and we don’t let them get that money back.

Cons

base should be higher with how few reps hit quota. More realistic quotas are needed. Managers are micromanaging across the board with no trust in reps. Expected to work 7am-6pm "to do well in the roll

Pros

Nice office, great wlb, free food/snacks, decent benefits

Cons

team match process has limited flexibility and input CI/CD kind of annoying, which is unexpected for a company of this size office location in chaotic and dirty part of manhattan
